'The House leadership needs to urinate or get off the pot,' Kennedy said of Democrats considering impeaching President Donald Trump.
Republican Senator John Kennedy expressed frustration Wednesday that aside from confirming judges, the GOP-led Senate has done"nothing."
The senator from Louisiana also reserved criticism for House Democrats, who he said were guilty of passing bills they knew had no chance of passing in the Senate. He also accused them of "harassing" the president. GovTrack, a website that monitors the legislature, said that the current Congress has enacted just 17 laws since taking office in January. The 116th Congress started slowly amid the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. With Democrats controlling the House and Republicans controlling the Senate, the 116th legislature has displayed biting partisanship.
